A damselfly's beauty belies its behavior — most damselflies are voracious predators, both as aquatic nymphs as well as adults. In flight, they hold their bristly hind legs in a basket shape to scoop up their prey. The prey is then transferred to their front legs, which hold it while the damselfly devours it.

Because of their intimidating pincers, or forceps, protruding from the abdomen, earwigs might appear to be a dangerous bug. This is a misconception. Earwigs can use their forceps to grasp onto a finger if agitated, but earwigs do not sting nor are they dangerous. They have no venom, so earwigs are not poisonous.

Ants break apart the food they are trying to eat and then use the mandibles to shape it until it fits within their actual mouth. Ants do not have teeth within their actual mouth, as their teeth are external and more commonly called mandibles. Ants have external teeth, called the mandibles which help them in breaking down the food into finer granules and hence play an active part in their food intake process as well in the digestion process.

Horseflies bite to ingest blood which is rich in protein. The protein is needed to develop their fertilized eggs. Only females need to bite since the males don't produce eggs. And yes, horseflies will chase you down to get their meal. Horsefly bite treatment Do not scratch the bite, even if it is itchy. Scratching it is likely to make the bite worse and increase the risk of bacterial infection developing. Do not use anything to clean the bite apart from soap and plain water.

Imitation as a form of battery. The first reason, “aggressive ant-mimicry”, is a rare but intriguing phenomenon – and it is employed by spiders to deceive their prey.
